Kverneland Plough Body No. 40
One of the highlights this year is the Kverneland Plough Body No. 40, an impressive addition to their ploughing arsenal. This plough body has been designed specifically with large tractor tyres in mind, offering significantly lower pulling forces. For those of us who are all too familiar with the rising cost of diesel, this means less fuel consumption and reduced wear and tear on your tractor—key factors in keeping your costs down over the long haul.
But it’s not just about savings. The Plough Body No. 40 is built to turn over soil efficiently, even in the toughest conditions, ensuring better aeration and soil health. This is exactly the kind of innovation that can make a real difference when it comes to crop yields, especially in a challenging farming climate like ours.
Say Hello to the Kverneland Rotago F Power Harrow
If seedbed preparation is your game, then the new Kverneland Rotago F Power Harrow is something you’ll want to check out. This next-gen machine is available in both basic and ISOBUS versions, giving you the flexibility to make on-the-go adjustments to the levelling bar and working depth. This kind of control means you can tailor your operations to the specific needs of your land, all while saving time and energy.
The Rotago F also features a pushed gear case and parallelogram linkage, which allow for seamless adjustments without the hassle of re-aligning the 3-point linkage or rear roller. It’s all about making your job easier, and in doing so, promoting more sustainable farming practices by keeping energy consumption in check.
Precision Seeding with the F-Drill CB F Coulter Bar
Paired perfectly with the Rotago F is the F-Drill CB F Coulter Bar, a cutting-edge seeding solution that emphasizes precision and adaptability. Whether you’re working with varying soil types or sowing different crops, this system allows you to customize working widths and depths in a single pass.
Adjustments are a breeze, whether you prefer the hands-on approach or the convenience of ISOBUS control. Plus, for those tricky road trips between fields, the optional supporting wheel adds that extra bit of stability during transport—no more worrying about wobbly rides on Ireland’s rural roads.
Forage Machinery to Boost Your Grassland Operations
This year, Kverneland will also showcase machinery aimed at improving forage production.
The 6500F FixBale is all about reliability and efficiency. Designed for high-density baling, this machine delivers consistent bale quality, reducing the time and energy you spend in the field. It’s perfect for farmers who want to make the most out of their grass, hay, or straw, ensuring that every bale is tightly packed and easy to handle.
On the other hand, the 853 Pro Straw Chopper is a must-see for those with livestock. This machine is designed for precision chopping, providing finely chopped straw that’s ideal for bedding or feed. Its robust design ensures durability and long-term performance, making it a sound investment for any farm.
We will showcase our flagship butterfly mower, the 53100MT, a masterpiece of mowing technology. With a working width of up to 10.2 meters and the QuattroLink ‘race car’ suspension, this mower delivers unmatched ground tracking and cutting performance, ensuring exceptional forage quality and efficiency.
In addition to these, the Kverneland FastBale will be on display — the world’s only non-stop round baler that eliminates the need to stop and start between bales. The FastBale’s unique pre-chamber system ensures consistent bale density and high-quality forage, making it a must-have for any farmer looking to streamline hay and silage operations. This machine is sure to draw a crowd as always.
